From April 2010, the Government changed the age of
eligibility for concessionary bus travel in line with changes made
to the state pension age.
This means that the age of eligibility for a Diamond Travelcard
was adjusted to reflect the pensionable age for women.
As the pensionable age for women gradually increases from 60 to
65 over the ten-year period from 2010 to 2020, the age of
eligibility for a Diamond Travelcard will also increase for both
men and women.

Travelcard, download our

Asked Questions or contact the

Travelcard team.
